Yoko Ono - Heartburn Stew Lyrics
I threw my woman power in a pot of stewAnd waited for my love to come.But not a single word did I hear from him,So I tried the stew on my dogBut he wouldnt even eat it.I put my light heart on a matching silver plateAnd waited for my love to come.But not a single footstep was heard near the doorSo I ate the plate myselfAnd got a heartburn.Heartburn, heartburn plate,Heartburn, heartburn cake.I toasted my pride and covered it with apple jamAnd waited for my love to come.But not a single sign of a stir or a breezeSo I soaked the bread in my milkAnd I gave it to the birds.Heartburn, heartburn plate,Heartburn, heartburn cake.I watched the clock ticking, ticking away to my past,Eight years old, birthday and raindrops.Not a single line from my dad or my momSo I laid the cake on my catBut she wouldnt even touch it.Heartburn, heartburn stew,Heartburn, heartburn blues.What do I want with a heartburn, I ask you,Dont try to give me the word.cause I ask a clever questionAnd I get a silly answer.
